Applying for Paraguayan Permanent Residency from abroad
The Migrations Directorate has recently decided to allow foreigners apply for Permanent Residency from their home countries through Registered Service Providers and a duly legalised or apostilled Power of Attorney. They decided upon this due to the fact that the Paraguayan borders are still closed and we don't have an estimate date for reopening.
If you think you might be interested and want more information, feel free to send me a message and I'll be happy to send you the information.
Y'all have a great day!

Buenos dias! Thanks for your post. I am Dr. K. Ayyad from Egypt, and I am interested in PR in Paraguay. When I checked the website of Paraguay embassy in Egypt to know the procedures of getting a tourist visa, I found out they offer the PR too. The documents they require are the same as those on the migraciones website, except for the $5,000 deposit or any other investment options. Is this part of the "PR from Abroad" new system you are talking about in this post? Is the application done by an attorney in Paraguay or by the applicant at Paraguay embassy in his home country?
Here's a link to the embassy website:

Once you get finished the PR procedure, The money Will be ready to return to your pocket.
So, The 5,000.-USD is not a part of The costs, it is just deposited as guarantee of solvence.
But, the lawyer budget is a cost that you must consider before take any action.
Hope this helps,

You have any story to share , if someone tried to scam you in this residency process ?
@SamsiiSo, first of all, it was not a remote way to get PR from abroad. Merely, it served people who wanted to get their pr but couldn't arrive in Paraguay because of Cvid, so they could submit their documents without losing the validity of the docs. But more or less, since November 2021, everything got back to normal; the applicants must appear personally in Paraguay.- @Tucanoprod
Good evening!
When the new law on permanent residence comes into force? Is the 180 days grace period taken into account? Is it still possible to apply for permanent residence in Paraguay according to the old procedure? Thank you very much!
While the 180 day grace period was included in drafts, it was left out of the final law.聽 Migrations is working to put together what they thought they would have 6 months to complete.聽 I have not seen any forms available.聽 The process seems simpler for somone who will work for a company in Paraguay or start a business in Paraguay, or has a degree.聽 The pensioner program has been dropped completely from what I have seen although there may be ways around the lack of a specific program.聽
Thanks for the update. My lawyer confirmed that the 6 months is not there. The medical test has also dropped from what I know. The proces is now 2 years stay and then 10 years.
@LoreLaterra yes please I need and would like to get a Paraguayan permanent residency from overseas.
@alex test Actually, you don't need to stay for two years. You do have to apply first for a two years temporary residence and cannot be absent from Paraguay for more than a year, meaning that is sufficient if you travel to Paraguay at least for a couple of days every year while having your temporary residence (no need to stay for the full 2 years). Once you are able to apply and obtain your 10-year permanent residence, you will have to visit at least once every three years to keep the residence permit valid.
Best,
Sally
